Description

This charming, pre-war, one bedroom, located on a tree lined block has it all, including a massive private rooftop terrace that has been thoughtfully finished. The expansive living room boasts soaring 11' ceilings, a decorative fireplace, and can comfortably accommodate a dining area. The bright kitchen has been recently upgraded and features new stainless-steel appliances. Off the kitchen, there is a stunning office area, perfect for working from home. Past the tastefully modernized bathroom, you will find the spacious bedroom, which can easily fit a queen-sized bed. The bedroom has generous closet space and receives abundant light from three windows. Upstairs, there is an additional windowed office area overlooking the private rooftop terrace. 46' long with stunning skyline views, the rooftop offers an idyllic retreat for summer barbecuing and entertaining. This beautiful home also features hardwood floors and excellent closet space for added appeal and functionality. Whole Foods is conveniently located only a half a block away and transportation is effortless with the 2nd Avenue Q train on 86th Street and the 4, 5, 6 train at the 86th Street Lexington station. Central Park is nearby and there are many wonderful restaurants and retail stores to explore. 227 West 87th Street is a pristinely maintained boutique walkup with a part-time superintendent. There is a laundry room in the basement. Sorry, only cats are allowed.

The Upper East Side remains the gold standard for classic New York elegance. Known for 'Museum Mile' and its quiet, tree-lined streets, the neighborhood offers a refined lifestyle away from the midtown bustle. While famous for its historic cooperatives, the area has seen a recent surge in ultra-luxury new construction condos, particularly along the Second Avenue Subway corridor, making it a top choice for both traditionalists and modern buyers.
